Sunset Lane Media to Adapt Dennis Ross Memoir 'The Missing Peace'
A movie is being made based on a book called 'The Missing Peace' by Dennis Ross.
The book tells the story of important meetings that happened a long time ago, in 2000, where people tried to make peace in a difficult situation.
It was about leaders and their teams trying to solve problems together, but it didn't work out perfectly.
The movie aims to show what happened during those intense talks and the effort everyone put in.
The people making the movie think it's an important story to tell, especially now.
They want to remind people that peace was once close to being achieved, and they hope to make it into a gripping movie.
Sunset Lane Media optioned Dennis Ross's memoir 'The Missing Peace' for film.
The memoir chronicles the 2000 Camp David Summit negotiations.
Ross served as a U.S. negotiator and lead Middle East envoy under President Clinton.
The film will focus on the leaders and advisors involved in the talks.
The project is produced by David Beaubaire and Steve Silverman.
